Conquer the lake with the Super Fat Cat LCS from Outcast Sporting Gear.  There’s only one thing better than eating raw fish in an overpriced Hollywood parlor, and that’s catching raw fish in the great outdoors; only because catching cooked fish in the great outdoors is really difficult, but you never know what you’ll catch when you’re in the right place at the right time. 
If you like to relax in comfort while you float on the water with a fishing pole and beer, then you need the durability and convenience of the Super Fat Cat LCS.  LCS stands for "Line Control System", which incorporates an inflatable seat and backrest with a new apron system held in place by adjustable stays.  This means you can raise or lower the apron to suit your particular preference  Not only can this adjustable height stripping apron raise the angler out of the water for a drier more comfortable ride, it reduces line friction and tangles, which means smoother casting.

With conveniently placed gear pockets at each side you’ll always have what you need at your finger tips, including your beverage.  There’s even additional storage behind the seat.  The 600-denier PVC bottom resists snags, sharp rocks and piranhas.  With the hand pump, this boat only takes a few minutes to inflate and features shoulder straps for convenient transportation while it’s inflated.

The new Tundraline 3 Tent from Eureka is specifically designed for extreme canoeists. With an extra easy set up and a ton of stake loops, this deceptively large tent is convenient and stable in windy conditions.  The reason this is such a great tent for the canoeist is that it’s very stable for wind tunnel nights along the banks of the river.  Second, this only has two poles and a sawn-in-place rain fly which means: you can set up quickly in the rain without getting the interior wet.  Definitely a great tent to have in the lineup for any outdoor enthusiast.

*Attention kayakers, get your own damn tent! 

We didn’t test this specific model of tent, but we know the features and the quality of Eureka tents have been outstanding in other inspections.  If you’re trying to make a decision on a tent to purchase, you should consider what you will be using the tent for.  If your primarily purpose is in conjunction with canoeing, kayaking, rafting or setting up along a river, then the Tundraline 3 Tent from Eureka is the way to go.  If you think you might be hiking a ways (not just pulling it out of the canoe), you might want to consider one of the lighter tents made for Back Country adventures or a larger deal if you’re setting up at a campground.

If you workout at a gym you’ll notice about 19 out of 20 people with headphones in their ears; about the same if you visit a high school classroom.  But what about the people that get their workouts in the water?  Finis, a worldwide leader in technical swimming development decided that it was time swimmers had some tunes to goad them on.  The SwiMP3v2 are waterproof headphones with a built-in MP3 player that attach to your goggles.  The sound quality is surprisingly good and the volume get’s louder than I would ever need it to be. 
If you’re a surfer, you might want to check out the SwiMP3-Surf; it’s a good looking pair of headphones. 

With only four buttons, the player is easy to control while it’s strapped to your head.  The search buttons double as volume control. The SwiMP3 connects directly to a USB port where you can easily add music to the unit.  You can drag and drop your MP3 files into the SwiMP3 folder or you can use the SwiMP3 Media Manager.  With 256 MB of storage, the player holds about 50-70 songs.  I used the headphones for about 4 hours continuously and the battery was sound.  There’s no digital display to show when the battery is low, but Finis says it will last about 10 hours.
